About George

George Laub is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with three years of clinical experience based in Utah. He works with people facing family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and self-esteem concerns. Sessions focus on practical steps to manage distress and clarify what matters next.

George uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma and life transitions. He helps people sort through upsetting events, notice how those events affect daily life, and practice new ways of responding. For someone coping with loss, he lays out small, manageable approaches to process feelings and rebuild routine.

He also supports people with attachment issues, communication problems, control struggles, eating and food-related concerns, and feelings of emptiness or shame. Men and young adults are listed among areas he works with, and he includes life purpose as a focus when clients feel directionless after change.

In sessions he looks for strengths a person already uses, then adds strategies to expand those strengths into useful habits. That can mean teaching coping skills, practicing conversations, or pacing exposure to difficult memories. The emphasis is on concrete tools that carry over into day-to-day life.

Evidence-based approaches and remote care

George works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are commonly used to treat trauma and life transitions. Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral methods focus on identifying upsetting thoughts and memories, then teaching step-by-step skills to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. These approaches are often helpful for post-traumatic stress, complex grief, and reactions to major life events.

He also uses strengths-based, skill-focused work that helps people notice what already works for them and build on it. That can include learning emotion regulation skills for anger, practicing new ways to communicate in strained relationships, or developing routines to address emptiness and low motivation. These methods aim to produce practical changes you can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options with each person and adjust techniques to fit their goals, needs, and preferences rather than applying a single method from the start.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can be scheduled around work or caregiving. If you want to begin, use the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to discuss how to make remote work for you.
